Congratulations to Trybe, Inc and community organizations in support of the on-going re-opening of Clinton Community Center and Park! The September 26th City of Oakland Clean and Safe City Townhall was another testament to Trybe and the community’s transformation of the center from a rundown, derelict building, to a warm, inviting, welcoming community gathering space. 

My office has been proud to partner with the City of Oakland, @OaklandTrybe Inc and 7 other community organizations to reactivate Clinton Park and Community Center. But we can’t do it alone. The City has managed the restoration of the building after over ten years of deferred maintenance, a fire on one side of the building during the pandemic, and replaced the roof to prevent leaks. Trybe is re-opening the building, painted, outreached to the unhoused, and beautified the center and park. Community partners have painted the mural and hosted regular cleanups, festivals, and events in the park. And– there’s still a ton of work and funds needed to re-open the center and park as a community gathering and programming space. Please join me by donating to this Gofundme to support @OaklandTrybe and #ClintonCommunityCenter. #Oaklandtrybe #LittleSaigon
